Description
Lenovo Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch
Lenovo Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Pass-thru
* Withdrawn from marketing
Unlike FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch full-fabric operations, the pass-thru module concentrates multiple compute
nodes into the external ports. The external ports connect to external Fibre Channel switches that support
NPIV. The internal ports connect directly to compute nodes through the chassis backplanes. The pass-thru
module presents one or more compute nodes per port to the fabric. The pass-thru module expands the fabric,
but, unlike a full-fabric switch, it does not count against the fabric domain.
Note: The Pass-thru module cannot be upgraded to a full-fabric switch module.
The part number includes the following items:
One Lenovo Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch or Pass-thru module

Cable, 90Y9338, is supported and contains two cables, a mini-USB-to-RJ45 serial cable and a mini-USB-to-

firmware updates.
